Next-Generation Firewalls: A New Age of Threat Management

New technologies such as Web 2.0, Social networking, Cloud Computing and mobility have dramatically affected the corporate network and the security challenges surrounding it. New bandwidth–hungry Web 2.0 applications and social media sites are overwhelming networks and First-Generation firewalls are failing to stop the invasion of new and sophisticated threats. Costs are soaring as the need for bandwidth increases – just to maintain the performance of mission critical applications.

Is your firewall capable of handling the growing demands of your business while managing and securing the application-centric network?

Join this web seminar to see how the new SuperMassive Next-Generation Firewall series from SonicWALL is helping IT to understand and control and secure their application-centric networks while at the same time, lowering their costs.

The cyber arms race does not discriminate or differentiate. If a network, identity, device or data are of value, cybercriminals will identify, target and ruthlessly attack. To promote global awareness and facilitate important dialogues, SonicWall remains steadfast in its commitment to research, analyze and share threat intelligence.
Join SonicWall security experts as we share findings, intelligence, analysis and research from the 2019 SonicWall Cyber Threat Report.
This exclusive session will help you improve your security preparations and posture going forward.

Many organizations are adopting cloud platforms such as Office 365 or G Suite. These offer a broad range of productivity tools beyond just email, so email security point solutions alone cannot protect the entire platform from targeted attacks.

The growing number of cloud services available in most organizations enable fast time-to-market for productivity and collaboration tools, but the easy availability of these capabilities can pose significant security risks for organizations.

You are deeply concerned with the constant risks of your organization becoming a victim of a security breach. You are also aware that without real-time visibility and knowledge into everything that goes on in your security environment, you face hidden dangers of the unknown that at times, have led to bad outcomes. These risks might be a result of unpatched network and application vulnerabilities, unauthorized intrusions, risky user activities and SaaS applications, and/or malicious malware attacks that could spread ransomware across the organization.

Successful attacks can halt an entire organization’s momentum, as stakeholders divert their focus from key business priorities to damage control. The inability to uncover and respond to these risks hampers an organization’s ability to protect sensitive information, meet compliance and maintain normal service operations.

This webcast will discuss how SonicWall’s Risk Meters, Analytics and Cloud Apps Security services give you a direct line of sight into the threat intelligence of your network environment in real time.
